| Description |
|
It's odd that chunk size is initially set when the first mongos is started. It's also strange the the --chunkSize flag can't be used to change chunk size once it's been set. I propose removing the --chunkSize flag from mongos altogether. Then have some command to mechanism for setting chunk size if users so desire it. e.g.: db.runCommand( {setchunksize: 128}) |

It would be nice if a command existed and it applied to mongos (the nodes already running). |

There already is a way to set it: use config |
